  The Graphtec can be set to GPGL or HPGL, I don’t cut using the windows Graphtec driver but it sounds like you may well be sending the wrong language to the cutter. Look at the cutter settings if it’s set to HPGL try GPGL & vice versa.

  Thanks Brian
  spot on!! it was set on HPGL, but running on windows XP it does,nt seem to like Corel draw much, so I must invest in new software – but which one! Flexisign,? can,t afford Signlab,but lot of talk about VMP?
  any opinions????

  thanks again

  regards

  Mike, I think you will find Signlab is a fair bit cheaper than Flexi.
